The Right and Wrong Ways to Wear Green on March 17
There are two primary ways for MLB teams to mark St. Paddy's Day. The first, as exemplified by both teams in yesterday's Tigers/Phillies game (see above), is to wear green jerseys and caps (and also green socks, for the handful of players who go high-cuffed). Other teams going that route yesterday included the Red Sox, Reds, and Royals.
To me, that's the right way to do it. It's a silly promotion to begin with, so why not go all in? Sure, you'd end up with a bunch of green-vs.-green games, but why not? It's spring training — embrace the fun!
But some teams opt to half-ass it by just wearing green caps (and, again, green socks when they're visible), as seen in yesterday's Rays/Pirates game:
That doesn't look endearingly silly; it just looks stupid, because the caps don't match the jerseys. But that didn't stop the Angels, Astros, Blue Jays, Cardinals (that's the only shot I could find of the cap, but you can see they paired with the red jersey), Cubs, Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Giants, Mariners, Marlins, Mets (although shortstop Francisco Lindor gets bonus points for his green glove), Orioles, Padres, Rangers, Rockies (ewwww, although I give them credit for going the extra mile with the green belts), Twins, White Sox, Yankees, Atlanta, or Cleveland from doing it anyway.
I want to take a minute to talk about the A's, who were notable yesterday for three reasons. First, they present an annual St. Paddy's conundrum, because green is already one of their colors. They should really just wear their standard green jerseys and caps and call it a day, but instead they wore a cap in a non-matching shade of green because merchandising:
Feeling extra lucky today 🍀

Second, they get bonus points for having green, shamrock-accented batter's boxes:
And third, although it has nothing to do with St. Paddy's Day, pitcher A.J. Puk has provided us with something I'm not sure I've ever seen before — a nipple that's visible through a baseball uniform:
Meanwhile, some NHL teams also got in on the fun, wearing green pregame sweaters and, in some cases, O'NOBs. Participating teams included the Senators, Canucks, Flyers, Kings, Golden Knights, and maybe a few others that I missed. Some teams that didn't play last night will be going green over the next couple of days.
ITEM! New podcast episode: When Chris and I decided to do a podcast, we knew that it would mostly be about uniforms and logos, but that we also wanted to talk about related topics that were sort of uni-adjacent. This week we have our first episode of that sort, as we discuss a topic near and dear to both our hearts: collecting.
Why are so many people who are into uniforms and logos also into collecting stuff? What's the difference between collecting and hoarding? What did Chris and I collect when we were kids, and what do we collect now? And what does all of this have to do with the 1987 movie Throw Momma From the Train? We discuss all of that, along with the NBA's new alternate unis, MiLB's new logo, teams wearing green for St. Paddy's Day, our listener-submitted question of the week, and more.
It's a really good episode — except that, for the second consecutive week, my vocals came out too echo-y, which is frustrating and embarrassing. We're taking steps to ensure that it doesn't happen again (please, no suggestions about mic settings, soundproofing foam, recording in a closet etc.) — thanks for your patience on that front.

Too good for the Ticker: Oh man, look at this amazing photo of Black players posing at West Point sometime in the 1920s. "It's from this really interesting National Archives piece about photos of Buffalo Soldiers at West Point, before the military officially integrated," says longtime reader Max Weintraub. "The article contains this quote from Richard Schneider, a preservationist in the Still Pictures Branch of the National Archives, who was digitizing thousands of nitrate negatives that were transferred from the military academy: 'Let's face it, there weren't that many Black faces in the 1920s at West Point. The first image I [found] was of this football team, and I only knew that it was Black players when I reversed the image. It was just an unusual image to come across.'"
Faaascinating. So many interesting visual details here: the striped sleeves, the striped socks, the old-school scoreboard in the background, the guy at far-right in the white robe (a trainer?), the three White guys in military uniforms, the "USA" banner whose lettering seems to pause in order to make room for center military guy's head (maybe it said, "US of A"?) — amazing stuff.
Update: Reader/commenter Kevin Corcoran notes that the banner probably read, "USMA," for "United States Military Academy." Of course!
New merch reminder: In case you missed it on Tuesday, I've teamed up once again with Adelph Wear — the brand run by longtime Uni Watch reader Nathan Haas — to create a new line of Uni Watch hockey jerseys (customizable with your choice of number and NOB, of course), as well as new Uni Watch socks and stirrups. We're taking pre-orders on them now.
In order to get in on these items, you must place your pre-order by March 31. You can do that here. We expect the finished product to ship out by the end of April.
My thanks, as always, for your consideration.
'Skins Watch: Some residents of Rutland, Vt., fear that the local high school may resume using its former "Raiders" team name and associated Native American imagery, after recently changing to "Ravens," now that three new school board members have been elected on a campaign to reverse the name change (from Kary Klismet). … The school board in Camanche, Iowa, is considering whether to change the local high school's "Indians" team name and logo. … A state civil rights board in Nebraska has recommended that the state phase out Native American team names and mascots, saying that such team names "perpetuate dangerous stereotypes and beliefs and are 'emotionally harmful' to Native American students" (from @kingsfan231). … Cheyenne Mountain High School in Colorado Springs and Gar-Field High School in Woodbridge, Va., will no longer use "Indians" as their team names (from Kary Klismet). … Also from Kary: Amesbury (Mass.) High School, which opted to retain its "Indians" team name in 2016, has now decided to revisit the issue.
Baseball News: A year ago I suggested that the pandemic might prompt teams to start honoring other types of heroes besides the military. Now Atlanta's Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers, are planning to wear a jersey on May 28 featuring the names of local healthcare, foodservice, and municipal workers "and other essential employees who have kept us safe, fed, and going" during the pandemic. Good for them (thanks, Phil). … New logo for the Frontier League's Evansville Otters (thanks to all who shared). … New logos for the American Association's Cleburne Railroaders. … UNC OF Justice Thompson, leaping high to attempt a catch at the wall, looked a lot like the Jordan jumpman logo (from James Gilbert). … Forty years ago today: Check out this bizarre shot of Mets P Tom Hausman wearing a comically oversized glove that was brought to training camp by a glove company rep (great find by Jeff Ash).
NFL News: New acquired Colts QB Carson Wentz will wear No. 2 (thanks to all who shared). … Big Ditch Brewing of Buffalo has a new beer called You Make Me Wanna Stout, as a nod to the Bills playing "Shout" by the Isley Brothers after touchdowns. "The packaging features a football player in a generic uniform, but matching the Bills' color scheme," notes Joe Werner.
College and High School Football News: Here's more about BYU's new uniforms. … Vanderbilt's spring practice jerseys don't have uni numbers (from Griffin Smith). … Reagan High in Milwaukee is going with a Milwaukee skyline rear-helmet decal. Note that the "T" in the word "City" reflects the team's offensive formation (from Jason Goede).
Hockey News: The Flames intentionally wore mismatched socks at Tuesday's team practice for World Down Syndrome Day. Goalies also wore mismatched pads (from Wade Heidt). … Sacred Heart University is building a new hockey arena. The school's costumed mascot and players wearing all three three different SHU jerseys were on hand for the groundbreaking ceremony (from John Muir and Kary Klismet).
Basketball News: The NBA has released a line of City Edition pennants (from Trevor Williams). … The Mavs and Clippers went green vs. grey last night, leading ESPN broadcaster Jeff Van Gundy to wonder aloud if a Mavs turnover was due to color confusion. … The middle section of this 1995 article has lots of observations and notes about then-current developments in NBA uniforms and merchandising (from @shoelesspodcast). … Man, North Texas's court, which is being used for the NIT, is, uh, really something (from Anthony Cosentino).
Soccer News: New shirts for USL Championship side Sporting KC II (rare soccer-centric item from Phil). … Glentoran FC of the Northern Ireland Football League Premiership have unveiled renderings of the planned redevelopment of their stadium (from Kary Klismet). … Also from Kary: Sligo Rovers FC of the League of Ireland Premier Division have launched a program to provide a free jersey to every baby born at Sligo University Hospital this year. … "The Coupe de France is probably the uni-quirkiest competition in the world," says our own Jamie Rathjen. "Everybody wears the same three ads instead of their normal ads; starters have to be numbered 1-11 and substitutes 12-18, regardless of their normal numbers; and it has its own font. This year's font is new — compare the '2' from last season and this season. And to add another quirk, the competition looks to be NNOB this season, whereas NOBs were below the number last season." … New kit for Belarusian side Dynamo Brest, who are now being outfitted by Saller (from Ed Zelaski).
Grab Bag: Really interesting article about a startup company that allows college athletes — mostly from basketball, but also from other sports — to sell their gear after they've used up their eligibility (from Paul Dillon). … Slovenian cyclist Primož Roglič has spent more racing days since 2019 in a leader's jersey than in his own team kit. … New logo for the Cambridge University Boat Club (from Timmy Donahue). … The man who committed last year's mass shootings in Nova Scotia was wearing a Canadian Mountie uniform — not his own — so now the Mounties are considering new rules regarding mandatory disposal of unused uniforms (from Timmy Donahue). … The SUNY system, of which I am a proud graduate, is holding a "Mascot Madness" bracket (from Kary Klismet). … Also from Kary: NASCAR's race at the Kansas Speedway on May 2 will be called the Buschy McBusch Race 400. As you can probably guess, the name was chosen via a fan contest. … You'd think a state flag design would be, you know, one official design. But there are no official standards for the South Carolina flag, which state legislators may soon address (from Mike Edgerley).
Our latest raffle winner is Geoff Poole, who's won himself a pair of Uni Watch magnets and a pair of Uni Watch koozies. Congrats to him, and thanks to Chris Hickey for sponsoring this one.
I'm going to be busy for most of today with an extremely important activity. Play nice while I'm away, and I'll see you back here tomorrow. — Paul
Green for St. Paddy's Day MLB Spring Training
Kevin Corcoran says:
Re. the West Point photo of Black football players; the banner likely reads USMA (United States Military Academy), the official name for West Point.
Ah, of course. I'll update the text accordingly.
Can't tell if the guy on the right is wearing a robe or a cassock. Chaplain, maybe?
Tim Ahner says:
That was my guess too. It is more than likely the priest.
Oooh… I love when my religious and sports uni-watching overlap! It might be a priest, but that's no cassock. It MIGHT be an alb, but unless he were blessing the athletes that would be weird. Definitely not definitive that he would be a chaplain.
I had a feeling I wasn't using the right term there…couldn't remember alb.
James Poisso says:
The Astros wore green socks yesterday.
My bad for omitting them. Now added!
Not a problem, Paul. I know you didn't do it intentionally.
Daniel O'Connell says:
The senators green jersey link goes to the A's tweet above it
Fixed. Here's the proper link:
Not a fan of South Carolina's attempt to standardize the state flag. The federal government has strict standards for the shapes, proportions, and colors of the U.S. flag, but those rules only apply to government purchases. For civilians and state and local governments, the colors and proportions of the U.S. flag vary widely from manufacturer to manufacturer, and that seems to be OK. Frankly, if you ever purchase a government-standard flag, such as from your member of Congress's office, you'll probably think the blue star field looks oddly purplish, where most retail flags have unions that vary from dark royal to medium navy. Even the number and pattern of stars is optional for non-government-purchased flags; as long as it has red and white stripes and a blue area with white stars and it looks even vaguely like an American flag, it's an American flag. Similarly, I don't think anyone would fail to recognize any of the variants of the South Carolina flag as a South Carolina flag.
Rainbow Guts says:
I have seen more and more color variants of the South Carolina flag than any other. T-shirts, sunglasses, and even baseball uniforms — look at the nape of the neck of many Myrtle Beach Pelicans jerseys over the years and there's a South Carolina flag, usually in the team's colorway. A notable exception was their retro jersey with Rainbow Guts stripes.
Unless the South Carolina government passes legislation and/or a "flag code" like there is for the Federal government, manufacturers are free to do what they please with that state flag. And, frankly, others — I've seen Maryland flags with purple and black (Ravens) or orange and black (Orioles) colorways.
The thing is, manufacturers will always be free to fiddle with the colors and designs of the SC flags they make. Enacting a state law standardizing the design won't change that. It will change what version of the flag state agencies purchase, but that's about it. What with the First Amendment and all, there's nothing the government can do to to stop someone from making and selling a Palmetto Flag in Garnet instead of navy for SCSU, for example. (Such as: link)
If the SC government wants to standardize the design and style of the flags used in government buildings and offices, that can be accomplished with simple administrative orders by the leader of each house of the Legislature and by the governor. No law is needed to accomplish the outcome that the state government actually has the constitutional power to accomplish.
Doogie Stardust says:
A.J. Puk with the biggest uniform related nipple story since Joel Schumacher put nipples on the Batsuit in Batman Forever.
Evan says:
Maybe Paul can begin research for a story on uniforms and nipple visibility.
Nick Allen says:
Regarding the Black football players at USMA, a little added trivia. There is still a "Buffalo Soldier Field" at West Point, which is used for intramural athletics by the Cadets, including football and rugby. The field is named as such because from 1907 until 1947, a detachment from the 9th and 10th Cavalry (the Buffalo Soldiers) was sent to West Point to teach cadets horseback riding. The stables are still located next to the field. I wonder if the football team in that photo was comprised primarily of those instructors.
Ed UW+ STAFF says:
Brutal placement of that parking lot for the UNC baseball shot.
Fun little item on the SUNY mascot madness bracket. I went to check it out. First off I did not realize there were so many SUNY & CC in the system. Makes sense for a large state, but 34 schools competing is higher than I expected.
Secondly the defending champ (2019) Rip Van Winkle is a 9 seed & part of a play in scenario. What is up with that? To be expected he is absolutely crushing the 1 & 8 seed in this round. The selection committee should be questioned about that seeding error.
What makes it worse for the teams just wearing green hats, and occasional socks, are that most of these teams are wearing colored jerseys. The Mariners don't look as bad with their white uniforms, whereas the Orioles orange lettering isn't the best complement.
Did I snooze and lose? Is Streaker Sports no longer sponsoring the podcast or are they just taking a break?
NASCAR's race at the Kansas Speedway on May 2 will be called the Buschy McBusch Race 400. As you can probably guess, the name was chosen via a fan contest.
People, use the gift of democracy responsibly while you still have it. Do you really want this to be your legacy?
Streaker will be back as a podcast advertiser in April, and beyond!
ChrisH UW+ STAFF says:
I'm Calling It The Kansas Spring Cup Race.
Hopefully, the cause being supported by this promotion is flush with 'poll tax' cash.
That macro-brew was the lower-tier series title advertiser for years, so to this long time fan calling a Cup race a Busch-Anything race feels wrong; that silly name makes it even wronger.
Kek says:
You "because merchandising" the A's for the different shade of green cap, but all those teams you deem look silly actually shy away from the potential merch dump buy not going full green jersey. Is there an actual right answer here?
That being said, the merch dump goes FAR beyond hats and jerseys. I had emails yesterday from every one of the four major leagues about special St. Pats merch (tees, sweats, etc). And I type this while wearing a green Pens shirt so I'm part of the problem too I suppose!!!
"…correct me if I'm wrong (Elaine), but I think I see… a nipple."
Long time, first time says:
Wentz wearing #2. Isn't that Jalen Hurts' number also? Interesting. Wondering if that was Wentz's number in HS or college.
Wentz wore 11 at NDSU, 20 in HS.
My guess: 1 + 1 = 2.
I'll stop calling it the No Fun League if they let Wentz wear his high school number!
Slaps face with a hearty "duh"…
Defector.com had a great piece yesterday by Casey Taylor on collecting. I felt the same way about uni watching … it seems like this pursuit used to be about interest and passion, and sometime in the last 10 years, the leagues themselves caught on to this passion. Now, there are different jerseys every season, special one-offs regularly, etc. The desire to collect went from a passion project to a way for capital to produce revenue.
Don't the A's have a kelly green uniform they could have worn?
Hate to be the broken record at the High School Dance, but every school in the 'Skins Watch has it wrong: Never name your team after American Indians, name your school after them. Should you be lucky enough to play in Tuckahoe, NY, Tomahawk, WI, or Keokuk, IA, congratulations! But if a tribute to our Indigenous citizens is what you really intend, you'd really be doing a mitzvah by naming your school after King Philip, Ely S. Parker, Jim Thorpe, or Alexander McGillivray.
But if you've got your heart set on that mascot, pick a benign vocation at which the Indians excelled: "Huntsmen", "Archers", "Riders", "Horsemen", "Code Talkers", "Sentinels". It sure beats "Redhawks".
diggerjohn says:
I'm from the village north of Tuckahoe, they had the decency to name their sports teams "Tigers".
Nipple analysis is why I visit this blog daily. Just can't find that hard hitting uni-journalism anywhere else
Hard-hitting, razor sharp and pointed analysis. I see what you did there…
In the USMA picture, I was struck by the expressions on the faces of the white cadets and the contrast with the expressions on almost all of the other faces.
Tom V. says:
"…Some teams that didn't play last night will be going green over the next couple of days…"
Wait a second. This is St. Patrick's Day. You either have a game on that day and wear green or you don't. There's no "we didn't have a game that day so we wore green two days later when we did." This isn't like Jackie Robinson Day where if you did miss it it's more than worthy to make up, this is St. Patrick's Day. Come on man.
It was cool when the Reds appeared in startlingly green versions of their regular uniforms.
None of what they're doing now is cool.
It was cool because they were being playful with their perception (at the time) of being a very staid, conservative team.
Shayne says:
I wonder what would happen in a game if a Goalie wore mismatched pads? It would be an incredible advantage to them as the distraction of mismatched equipment could mess with the perception and timing.


4K Resolution - Native Vs Upscaled Explained.
As with any new development in technology, there's a whole load of jargon associated with 4K projection – which, unless you're a tech expert, can often be quite difficult to understand.
What's the difference between 4K DCI and UHD? What does 4K on the panel mean? And more recently, what is all this we're hearing now about 'True 4K', pixel shifting and 'upscaled' 4K? Are these different technologies from native 4K?
Those selling you the latest tech don't always take the time to explain the difference between these terms and how this difference affects your purchase decisions. If you want to get the most out of your projector, take a moment to wrap your head around the different ramifications of this jargon – dense as it might be. We've brought this guide together to help you do just that.
4K, or 4K DCI, is a resolution of 4096x2160px. This is the 4K resolution used by the cinema and video production industry. With 4K DCI, the total number of pixels projected is around 8.8 million – or in other words, four times as many as the previous digital projection and editing standard of 2048x1080px, 2.2 million pixels.
To be deemed to have native 4K DCI resolution, the projector's display panel must have this pixel count and reproduce each individual pixel on the screen. We'll come back to why this distinction matters.
Currently only projectors from Sony feature a native panel pixel count of 4096 x 2160.
Every Sony 4K SXRD Home Cinema projector – from the VPL-VW260ES to the laser light source VPL-VW760ES – delivers true 4K images with a native resolution of 4096 x 2160. That's over 8 million separate pixels, giving four times the detail of Full HD.
While some other brands of projectors projectors are advertised as being '4K capable' or 'True 4K', they actually use lower-resolution 1080p or 2K panels. The original 4K signal is first down converted to much lower HD resolution before being fed to each HD image panel. Then, before it reaches the projector lens, the image's apparent resolution is boosted using so-called pixel shifting technology. Partial frames from the lower resolution panels are minutely displaced by a rapidly-moving shifting device. These partial frames are projected in quick succession, building up an on-screen image with a 4K UHD pixel count.
The video on the right shows the benefit of native over upscaled..
4K UHD resolution is the consumer market standard. In the world of consumer 4K UHD TV's the TV's panel has a native resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels.
In the world of 4K UHD resolution projectors, the projector achieves this resolution (At the time of writing this article, March 2018) by using a technology called "pixel shifting."
Different manufacturers implement this technology in slightly different ways, but for a very rudimentary explanation of the tech – it essentially overlays two HD images on top of each other (depending on the projectors panel / chip), shifted by a half a pixel up, down, left or right quickly so the naked eye can't detect the shifting.
The display panel, therefore, can be native 1080p (as seen in 3LCD and some entry level DLP models), Some DLP models might use a chipset using 2176x1528 micromirrors, the device projects the same pixels twice, thus creating twice as many pixels on the screen resulting in a crisper image.
The difference here is that native 4K projectors have roughly eight million distinct pixels on their panel to start off with, while pixel shifting tech starts with a lower number of pixels and creates the higher number by using the source image and processing it.
Depending on the individual model, some projectors pixel shift twice, some do so four times – with the former having a more convincing 4K effect in areas of the image where their is finite detail such as small text.
We've made no bones about the fact that this is not native 4K. But according to the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), a projector being described as 4K UHD must have at least one HDMI input that can accept a native 4K UHD signal, and be capable of displaying each individual pixel of the 3840x2160px (8.3 million pixels) count on screen.
While the marketing terminology is contentious, the technology – and price point – behind pixel-shifting 4K resolution projectors deserves recognition. Time and time again we've been surprised by new models and the seriously impressive images they can achieve.
When you take the steep price difference between these models and the native 4K alternatives, into account, it's really worth giving them their dues.
Price : Now we're onto the real reason why this technology is so popular. Native 4K projectors are not cheap, there's simply no getting around that. When you consider you can get a '4K enhanced' projector such as the BenQ W1700 for as little as £1439 compared to the native 4K UHD starting point of £5,000, you can see why this option has gained so much attention.
Got your head around the resolution terminology? Here are a few further things to consider when deciding on the right 4K resolution projector for your needs.
The first point is to consider the content. The projector can only do so much: if you're not feeding in 4K content, expect to receive a poor quality reproduced image rather than a 'wow-factor' 4K image.
It's all down to your individual perception of "value" and how much 4K content you're watching. It's also a judgement as to what you deem as acceptable in terms of the price gap between the native and non-native 4K projectors.
Think too about the projector in the context of your unique setup. Viewing distance is a huge factor in perceiving resolution. If you're viewing the screen from a common distance of say 1.3x the screen width, you may not see all the detail on even a standard 1080p image. It's often beyond the ability of the human eye to resolve such minute levels of detail. Move up close, however, and you can see pixel structure.
A picture generated by either the 4K DLP chip, or by the 3LCD 4K-enhanced models, will certainly appear higher in resolution than a standard HD 1080p picture from a distance of 1.3x the screen width. But since we are reaching the limits of the human eye to resolve fine detail at this distance, the perceived differences between native 4K and the 3LCD 4K-enhanced projectors are subtle when viewing video. Though as previously noted, they're less subtle with high resolution graphics and text.
Don't forget that your entire setup needs to be 4K compliant to allow your projector to display the striking 4K images you expect. This means all the AV devices in the setup, any switchers, splitters, AV receivers and, of course – cabling.
Basic 4K – less than 10-bit colour, no HDR = 10.2Gbps.
Standard 4K – 10-bit colour, no HDR = 11.1Gbps.
Advanced 4K – 10-bit colour or higher and HDR = 18Gbps.
You can find out more about home cinema cabling in detail in our cabling guide.
Finally, check out a range of 4K projector screens to complete your setup and ensure that none of the details from the image are lost to 'visual noise' created by screen material structure of non 4K screens such as standard matte white.
We hope the above 4K resolution : Native Vs Upscaled guide has given you a clear understanding of the basics in what to look out for.
We understand there is a lot to take in and a lot of choice so if you still need help we're only a phone call or email away.

I went into this movie thinking it was going to be just another "chick flick." (Not that there's anything wrong with that, mind you...) I found myself pleasantly surprised. This movie was funny in the way that I like: understated and without drawing attention to the comedy. Julia Roberts was fun to watch.
Over the course of Led Zeppelin's career, Jimmy Page often spoke of creating a chronological live Zeppelin album which would showcase the band in full flight. Not only has Page done that with "How The West Was Won", he has released this monster. This will make Zeppelin freaks remember why they fell in love with the band in the first place.
"Led Zeppein DVD" primarily consists of material from four concerts: Royal Albert Hall 1970, Madison Square Garden 1973, Earls Court 1975, and their final UK gigs at Knebworth in 1979. Zeppelin was not the type of band that would do note-for-note renditions of their songs. The band would often improvise new sections in the middle of a song. Witness "Communication Breakdown" from Royal Albert Hall; Robert Plant starts belting out the Isley Brothers "It's Your Thing" right after a furious Page guitar solo. Witness "Since I've Been Loving You" from Madison Square Garden, which begins with a Page onslaught and features some great interplay between Plant and Page. The footage from both of these shows is excellent, the sound prestine in Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound.
However, Earls Court will leave you breathless. This section begins with a 3 song acoustic set which looks like it was recorded yesterday. Plant is in great voice, and Page looks every inch the guitar god in his black dragon suit. "In My Time Of Dying" is incredible. John Paul Jones starts whipping out these furious bass runs while Page goes postal on slide guitar. John Bonham is right there with Jones, doing fill after outrageous fill. "Stairway To Heaven" is beautiful with split screen shots of Page in blue light and Plant's hair highlighted by a yellow spotlight.
Knebworth 1979 has more great footage. "Achilles Last Stand" has to been seen and heard to be believed. Page, although by this time is suffering through heroin addiction, pulls out all the stops on this epic, and the whole band pushes their skills to the limit and beyond. "Kashmir" is awesome, as is their revamped version of "Whole Lotta Love". Then, it's over.
This DVD shows why Zeppelin cannot reform without John Bonham, who died 13 months after the Knebworth concerts. He is simply irreplacable; his drumming throughout the CD is powerful, concise, and quite fun to listen to. Zeppelin wouldn't be a quarter of the band they were without Bonzo, and they know it. Be thankful that Jimmy Page oversaw this DVD project and buy it now. It's simply amazing.
I really very much enjoyed this film. As a fan of the work of Kevin Smith I can say this really is one of his best(sure he's only done 4 and i doesn't beat clerks). Ben Affleck(who was in mallrats and chasing amy)and Matt Damon give what I feel are their best performances. and what tops it all of is Jay and Silent Bob(smith) who are regulars in all his films. I really don't see what is offensive. I doesn't make fun of any religon per say. What i feel it does do is open your mind to different aspects of religion and different was of thinking about it. No one will really touch religion it that matter before. If you want to attack it for that reason you really should see the movie and then rethink you taughts on it. I know quite a few who have seen it none where offended or saw anyting offensive in it. Every one has a right to think differently about everyting and religion is one of them. Smith just gave you a lot of things to think about.
[....] There are a couple mistakes in regards to left-right positioning (which are quickly rectified through continual practice) and the whole 'mirror-movement' is challenging—-at first. But for someone serious about learning the basics of Tai Chi Ch'uan, you really cannot go wrong here. You just need three things: enough space to practice (10' by '10 is optimum), enthusiasm, and patience.
Tai Chi Ch'uan, translated as 'supreme ultimate boxing', is an ancient Chinese exercise designed to maintain flexibility, increase mental awareness, and cultivate 'Chi', i.e. lifeforce. Practice of this martial art strengthens the muscles of the entire body, limbers the joints, teaches one correct posture, balance and breathing, and gives the practitioner a calm 'natural high' far more subtle and rewarding than the usual methods (caffeine, sugar, alcohol). There are three ways to learn the art: through a certified instructor (the best), off a video such as this (also recommended), or from a book (not recommended at all). And among the video selection, Terry Dunn's T'ai Chi for Health is among the very best.
The video begins with Terry practicing the Yang Long Form at dawn on a beach while a relaxed angle-American voice explains the basic concepts of Taoist philosophy and extols the benefits of long-term Tai Chi practice. Very classy. The meat of the video is in three sections: 1) the basic postures and warm-up stretches (30 minutes), 2) instruction of the 108 Yang Long Form movements (60 minutes), 3) additional exercises (15 minutes). A long conclusion showpiece has Terry practicing the entire form in a dimly lit studio.
The production and presentation of this video are top-notch. Terry Dunn is a calm and graceful teacher with a mellow, easy-on-the-ears voice; the atmospheric music by Vangelis compliments the forms very well. The philosophical concepts are presented in an understandable way for those not acquainted with Eastern thought. Though there are a few neglected areas, including the history of Tai Chi's development (it originally begun as Dim-Mak, or 'death-point striking') and its sword forms, for those interested in increasing their health in a graceful, gentle way, I highly recommend this tape. I've been using it for five years and am _fully_ satisfied with the results.
Two Great Fantasies From the Heyday of Fantasy Filmmaking!
From the age of wonder comes a tale so bizarre, so mystical, so magical, it has to be seen to be believed! A world that once thrived is now nearly a wasteland, ruled over by cruel, half bird/half lizard creatures called the Skeksis. The planet's more humble creatures flee from their presence. Their evil is countered only by a race of good and kind wizards called the Mystics, but it is the Skeksis who maintain power over the Dark Crystal. The only hope for returning balance to their world is in that of a small gelfling boy named Jen, who, with the help of his new friends, Kira and Fizzgig, and the guidance of a wise old woman named Aughra, must reunite the Dark Crystal with its missing shard and heal an ancient species.
An adventure that could only have come from the mind of Jim Henson, "The Dark Crystal" is a masterpiece in every sense. Bringing to vivid life the fantastical and grotesque illustrations of Brian Froud, and clearly influenced by "The Empire Strikes Back" and "The Lord of the Rings," Jim Henson and Co-Director Frank Oz have invented a world all their own. Every creature and character that appears onscreen is a figment of the imagination, and each one is as real as you or I. The visual effects and scenery are a feast for the eyes, but the simple and engaging story is equally captivating. In the Gelflings, the filmmakers manage to capture the very embodiment of pure innocence and goodness, and in the Skeksis, the very essence of evil. The Special Edition DVD release has more than enough extras to satisfy, the most overwhelming of which is the hour long making-of documentary, "The World of the Dark Crystal." Other features include deleted and work-print scenes, trailers, character art profiles, talent files, and an isolated music score. Well worth the purchase for anyone looking to own the quintessential 80's fantasy film. And, while I don't think her much to look at, Kira's voice is heavenly.
Sarah is a beautiful but delusional teenage girl living with her overbearing parents and incessantly crying baby brother. She immerses herself in a world of fairytale fantasy to forget her day-to-day strife, and rehearses lines from books in the hope of one day becoming a great actress like her real mother. But on one particularly stormy night, Sarah is left alone to tend to her baby brother yet again, and the assignment is more than she can bear. She finally makes a hasty wish for the infant to be taken away by goblins, to trouble her no more! --- Her wish is granted. --- Sarah suddenly finds herself alone in a fairy kingdom on a magical quest to save her brother, journeying beyond the gates of the goblin city and to the castle of the very Goblin King himself, but to get there she first must solve the Labyrinth!
From fantasy masters Jim Henson and George Lucas comes a film that delighted a generation! Labyrinth is a magical fantasy that combines the Wizard of Oz, Alice In Wonderland, and the Return of the Jedi, with an 80's twist in the form of David Bowie's one of a kind musical style. The film follows Sarah's transformation from bratty teenage girl to sympathetic and endearing heroine, as she makes her way through all the traps and twists the Goblin King sets before her, picking up new friends as she goes, from the ugly but good-hearted dwarf, Hoggle, and an enormous, hairy simpleton called Ludo, to brave Sir Didymus the fox and his noble steed, Ambrosius the dog. Almost the entire cast is direct from Jim Henson's creature shop, featuring an assortment of weirdies and baddies the likes of which you've hopefully never seen. And there's more magic still, thanks to the sorcery of Jareth, the Goblin King, portrayed beautifully by the hypnotic personage of David Bowie. Jennifer Connelly holds her own as Sarah though, looking more beautiful than I have ever seen her, and far too hot to be the staying at home and reading Tolkien on a Friday-night type, but we'll let that slide in lieu of the gorgeous eye-candy. If Henson and Lucas were aiming for a timeless classic here, ala "The Wizard of Oz," they may have missed the mark, as the music of the film dates it as unmistakably 80's. Nevertheless, it is without a doubt a masterpiece of filmmaking in true Jim Henson style, a great trip for the 80's fantasy enthusiast, and an excellent piece of fantasy entertainment for anyone who is a fan of the genre. More than a few elements from the world of Harry Potter were clearly inspired by this film, just as it was inspired by the classic fantasies that came before it. "Labyrinth" is a true work of art, and a true milestone of fantasy entertainment!
The DVD is in widescreen, featuring a fullscreen theatrical trailer, and a long and informative behind the scenes featurette that includes interviews with the performers and creators, not to mention more lovely footage of Jennifer Connelly. Cast and Crew "Talent Files" are also included. Don't hesitate to add "Labyrinth" to your collection today!
Inu Yasha deserves 10,20 or 30 stars. This is just one GREAT anime. It just does'nt get much better than this. This is a MUST buy for any Inu Yasha fan. I can't wait until all seasons are finally released. Inu Yasha,all I can say is "TOTALLY AWESOME"!!!!
the cartoons keep my kids and my wife and I always interested. It is a good way for kids to learn about our nations history, while having some fun. I just wish they would release the whole series.
After making a film version of their best Flying Circus bits (And Now For Something Completely Different), the Pythons wanted to make an original movie. They realized that the quest for the Holy Grail would lend itself nicely to a series of sketches focusing on each knight. For a climax, they planned on sending the knights into Herrods department store to buy the grail (because, after all, Herrods sells everything).
But somewhere along the way, this collection of medieval skits became one of the best comedies ever made. You could credit the use of authentic sets and costumes. For some reason, making the movie historically accurate makes it funnier. Or you could credit the way they used their painfully low budget --- like using different sides of a castle to represent multiple castles in the story. If you notice it, you get an extra laugh. Or you could credit the use of two directors, forcing everyone to get it right the first time to avoid two sets of solutions to every problem.
Whatever the reason, Monty Python and the Holy Grail holds up as one of the best comedies ever filmed. It still looks cheesy, but in a good way. The plot is full of nice big holes, too. Every time you see it, you notice something new and miss something you've memorized. The jokes don't wait for a laugh track. It's just one strange punchline after another.
For the special edition of the DVD, the five living Pythons put together a handful of extra bits. The best extras are the audio tracks. You hear the directors talk about set design, John Cleese complains about being wet and cold, and Michael Palin explains why everything is funny. The documentary in which the two Terrys (the directors) visit the old filming locations is fun, too. They still have their sense of humor about it all. If you like to laugh, you should buy this DVD and watch it over and over until you've memorized every line. If you don't like to laugh, you are a very strange person.
This movie delivers constant laughs that I still chuckle at today. If you are looking for something to laugh at, you have found it. Carpool offers all types of comedy, be it suttle in a conversation, situational, the looks of people or just the overall setting of the movie. A must-buy.
"King Creole" was only one of a handful of movies that Elvis did that really showed his acting ability. A great supporting cast and songs that actually fit the scenes, showed that Elvis had what it took to be a great dramatic actor. This movie is a must see. You won't regret watching it!


Home Cooking And Coffee Brewin..
Located near Les Halles, they're right in the middle of a very busy and centrally located neighborhood, close to the famous restaurant street Rue Montorgueil, with many regulars coming by to grab a coffee on their way to work.
For the size of the kitchen, it's impressive what they are able to make; Matamata's cake and lunch offerings are all made in-house, using seasonal ingredients whenever possible. Thankfully winter is root vegetable season and you can be sure that the carrot cake is a best seller. On Saturdays you can come for brunch too.
The upstairs has much more of an espresso-bar feel than your average cafe. It's the kind of place you can pop in for a quick drink and stand at the bar, reminiscent of other small spaces in town like Fondation and Ten Belles. In a city where space is limited, it's no surprise that cafes like these keep popping up. Downstairs, however, they've turned the basement into an additional space: there is a large table, welcoming for bigger groups (the space can be reserved for private events) or people that want to sit and work for a bit. A couple of tables sit outside, and since the only thing that keeps Parisians from sitting outside—even in winter— is a rainy day, there are fleece blankets available for those who want to brave the cold.
Paris often gets the reputation of having bad and cranky service, though because the specialty coffee scene is young, it has managed to keep a very open and accepting attitude. As such, most coffee shops in town are run by people who believe in being friendly, breaking down many preconceptions of Parisian service. Arek and Soucasse are definitely examples of this friendly attitude, happy to chat about coffee—or anything else for that matter—and educate their consumers on the wide world of specialty coffee. No wonder they often use the hashtag #welovepeople.
Maybe that all comes from the Kiwi influence: Soucasse's wife Leigh hails from New Zealand, from a small town for which Matamata is named. In Maori, the word means "summit"or "top." And while opening a coffee shop isn't the same as climbing a mountain, for the owners, Matamata is their own version of adventure—starting small, working their way up and building with passion.


The educative-coordinated manual is an recognized imprinted newsletter, the material in which fully corresponds to the programs just for this or that specialty inside the university or college.
If to talk in basic and available language, then this is the most typical methodic that is certainly moved through the training course to the course for short term use.
With the help of techniques manual, students not simply carry out functional and laboratory function in the school room, but also correctly draft reviews, in line with all specifications. Hence the strategies manual is definitely an important associate in lecture and sensible sessions in the college.
There are several types and means of completing a systematic handbook. Determine plainly the things you set up as a target from the job: create a strategies handbook or advice for useful lessons. According to the type of approaches handbook, the approach of carrying out the step-by-step manual is preferred.
Usage of a common conceptual equipment, unification in the application of language in designation.
use modern medical information and facts, procedure it and then use it to resolve practical troubles.
makes use of the chances of explanatory and other text messages.
This kind of newsletter offers quick conclusion info on a particular matter, which is much easier to digest by awareness as well as to bear in mind.
Strategy is a kind of instructions or even a cheat sheet, how to handle projects in practice, and what facets of the project demand particular interest.
The method is great for the look and presentation from the operate, as well as an more credit score is also additional for that last assessment.
The quantity of pages in the handbook does not surpass 30-50, which means that it is not necessarily difficult to carry this kind of guide inside a backpack or handbag.
Strategy if wanted and capabilities works extremely well around the test as a genuine clue on the topic. When you can find no cribs, plus a draft inside a go is a great answer, so it's better never to forget about the training handbook for any liable test.

What is the point? Examining how curriculum materials articulate mathematical goals and how teachers steer instruction
Janine T. Remillard, University of Pennsylvania, United States ; Luke T. Reinke, University of North Caroline at Charlotte, United States ; Radhika Kapoor, University of Pennsylvania, United States
International Journal of Educational Research Volume 93, Number 1, 2019 ISSN 0883-0355 Publisher: Elsevier Ltd
This study examined how authors of four different elementary mathematics curriculum materials articulate the mathematical goals of the lesson and orient the activities toward the goals, as well as the extent to which teachers steered instruction toward the goals during enactment. Through document analysis, we identified four ways in which authors support teachers in identifying and orienting the lesson toward the goals. Analysis of the enacted lessons of 8 teachers suggests a correlation between the depth to which the goals were communicated across the four categories and the extent to which teachers steered the instruction towards the goals. The authors conclude with recommendations to curriculum developers for communicating mathematical goals in ergonomic ways.

Q: HTML.ActionLink vs Url.Action in ASP.NET Razor Is there any difference between HTML.ActionLink vs Url.Action or they are just two ways of doing the same thing?
When should I prefer one over the other?

A: Yes, there is a difference. Html.ActionLink generates an  tag whereas Url.Action returns only an url.
For example:
@Html.ActionLink("link text", "someaction", "somecontroller", new { id = "123" }, null)

generates:
link text

and Url.Action("someaction", "somecontroller", new { id = "123" }) generates:
/somecontroller/someaction/123

There is also Html.Action which executes a child controller action.

A: Html.ActionLink generates an  tag automatically.
Url.Action generates only an url.
For example:
@Html.ActionLink("link text", "actionName", "controllerName", new { id = "<id>" }, null)

generates:
<a href="/controllerName/actionName/<id>">link text

and
@Url.Action("actionName", "controllerName", new { id = "<id>" })

generates:
/controllerName/actionName/<id>

Best plus point which I like is using Url.Action(...)
You are creating anchor tag by your own where you can set your own linked text easily even with some other html tag.
<a href="@Url.Action("actionName", "controllerName", new { id = "<id>" })">

   <img src="<ImageUrl>" style"width:<somewidth>;height:<someheight> />

   @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.<SomeModelField>)

A: You can easily present Html.ActionLink as a button by using the appropriate CSS style.
For example:
@Html.ActionLink("Save", "ActionMethod", "Controller", new { @class = "btn btn-primary" })

A: @HTML.ActionLink generates a HTML anchor tag. While @Url.Action generates a URL for you. You can easily understand it by;
// 1. Item Definition
@HTML.ActionLink("Item Definition", "ActionMethod", "ControllerName")

// 2. /ControllerName/ActionMethod
@Url.Action("ActionMethod", "ControllerName")

// 3. Item Definition
 Item Definition

Both of these approaches are different and it totally depends upon your need.

A:

    @Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")

@using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Company", FormMethod.Get))
{

        Find by Name: @Html.TextBox("SearchString", ViewBag.CurrentFilter as string)
        <input type="submit" value="Search" />
        <input type="button" value="Clear" onclick="location.href='@Url.Action("Index","Company")'"/>

}

In the above example you can see that If I specifically need a button to do some action, I have to do it with @Url.Action whereas if I just want a link I will use @Html.ActionLink.
The point is when you have to use some element(HTML) with action url is used.

A: I used the code below to create a Button and it worked for me.
<input type="button" value="PDF" onclick="location.href='@Url.Action("Export","tblOrder")'"/>

Chadwick Boseman's death shedding light on colon cancer
by: Gabby Easterwood
MOBILE, Ala. (WKRG) — The death of Chadwick Boseman has been on the minds of many, now this tragedy is spreading awareness for colon cancer.
A hero on-screen, off-screen, and in his afterlife, Chadwich Boseman's death is now helping local doctors and oncologists educate those in terms of colon cancer. Dr. Issac Payne, a Surgical specialist with Infirmary Health says, "It's kind of a wake-up call. Colon cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the united states. There is also a lifetime risk of 1 in 23 Americans that will develop colon or rectal cancer in their lifetime."
Getting screened is recommended at 45. Boseman only 43 at his passing shows cancer disregards age. Younger patients getting screened earlier for colon and rectal cancer is becoming part of the norm. Dr. Moh'd Khushman, an associate professor of interdisciplinary clinical oncology at USA Heath Mitchell Cancer Institute tells WKRG News 5 there are plenty of signs for when to know to get screened. "If you're younger than 45 do not ever assume because your younger you're not going to have colon cancer. If you have symptoms that are persistent then do not take it lightly."
Another factor Boseman's death brings to light, is the fact that African Americans are at an increased risk of being diagnosed with cancer. Dr. Payne saying "African Americans are disproportionately affected compared to Caucasians and while it's an unfortunate situation with Mr. Boseman. Colon Cancer is survivable." The cancer is survivable but needed to be taken seriously because early diagnosis as with most illness is key. Dr. Khushman saying it's never too late either. "If you missed your chance to get screened, early diagnosis could potentially help the person be taken care of.

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star! – New App Measures Sky Brightness
May 1, 2013 George Arnold	Leave a comment
Photo: Jeremy Stanley
Researchers from the German "Loss of the Night" project have developed an app for Android smart phones, which counts the number of visible stars in the sky. The data from the app will be used by scientists to understand light pollution on a world wide scale.
n natural areas you can see several thousand stars with the naked eye" says Dr. Christopher Kyba, physicist at the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) and Freie Universität. "In Berlin, we can still see several hundred, but the situation in most large cities and world capitals is far worse."
The smartphone app will evaluate sky brightness, also known as skyglow, on a worldwide scale. It will be an extension to the "GLOBE at Night" citizen science project, which has been running since 2006. This data can be used to map the distribution and changes in sky brightness, and will eventually allow scientists to investigate correlations with health, biodiversity, energy waste and other factors.
"Life evolved periodic changes of bright days and dark nights" says Dr. Annette Krop-Benesch of the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB). "The introduction of artificial light into the atmosphere is changing ecosystems worldwide, and might even have an impact on our health. Unfortunately, we have very little information about light levels in different habitats at night."

Chaim Sztajer (15 July 1909 – 16 February 2008) was a Polish-Jewish Holocaust survivor known for his participation in the Treblinka uprising. Sztajer was detained as a Sonderkommando in the Treblinka extermination camp for ten months, from early October 1942 until 2 August 1943, when he managed to escape during the uprising. Sztajer was held in Treblinka II, known as the 'death camp', in the final months of his detention. In secret communications with Jankiel Wiernek, who was held in Treblinka I, Sztajer assisted in coordinating the uprising between the two camps.

Sztajer was among many survivors who volunteered to give evidence in the trial of John Demanjuk, a Ukrainian-American man accused of being the notorious Treblinka guard known as Ivan the Terrible. Sztajer claimed that during the uprising, he struck Ivan the Terrible on the back, causing him to fall over. Sztajer travelled to Jerusalem for the trial, however, he was eventually asked by the prosecution not to testify.

Sztajer is also known for his miniature model of the Treblinka camp, which is on display at the Melbourne Holocaust Museum in Melbourne, Australia.

Early life
Sztajer was born on 15 July 1909 in Częstochowa, Poland to Wolf Yossif and Blima Sztajer. He had four brothers. As a child, Sztajer loved to play soccer, and he would often sneak out to play with a local team on Saturdays while his family observed Shabbat.

In 1920, Sztajer was conscripted into the Polish army, where he served only six months of his mandatory two years of conscripted duty after his father bribed officials for an early discharge.

Sztajer married Hela Majorczyk, a dressmaker from Wilno, on 10 July 1939. The couple had a daughter in 1940, whom they named Blima after Sztajer's mother.

On 3 September 1939, the city of Częstochowa was annexed by Nazi Germany. The Częstochowa Ghetto was established on 9 April 1941. When the ghetto was established, Sztajer's apartment fell within the perimeter of the ghetto, and he was not forced to relocate. The liquidation of the ghetto began on 22 September 1942 and Sztajer was deported with his wife and daughter to the Treblinka extermination camp on 3 October 1942.

Treblinka extermination camp

Forced labour
Upon arrival at Treblinka Sztajer's wife, Hela, and their infant daughter Blima were immediately sent to the gas chamber, where they were killed. Sztajer, like others, believed the chamber was a shower and he had been ordered to remove his clothes and wait in line with his wife and daughter. The 'shower' was deemed full right after his wife stepped in, however, the notorious Treblinka officer Ivan the Terrible also grabbed Blima from Sztajer's arms and threw her into the chamber as the doors were closing.

Sztajer was pulled from the group awaiting the gas chambers after he was recognised by another prisoner, a former neighbour from Częstochowa who was working as a Sonderkommando, who told an SS guard that Sztajer was a good worker. He was immediately put to work sorting the clothes and possessions of the murdered victims. A few weeks later, he was sent to Treblinka II, where he was forced to carry the bodies of the murdered victims from the gas chambers and bury them in mass graves.

Later in his imprisonment, Sztajer and other prisoners were made to exhume the buried bodies and burn them, in order to destroy the evidence of the crimes at the camp. Sztajer was forced to remove the heads from the decaying bodies and hand them over to the Nazi guards, who wanted to count the skulls and find out how many people they had actually killed.

Uprising and escape

In the lead up to the uprising, Sztajer exchanged secret communications with Jankiel Wiernek, who was detained in Treblinka I. Sztajer and the other organisers in Treblinka II were told to listen out for a gunshot in Treblinka I at 4:00 pm on 3 August 1943; however the shot rang out early after guards in Treblinka I caught two prisoners in possession of valuables. Some members of the group had stolen weapons from the guards' armoury, and others attacked guards with improvised weapons including shears and shovels.

Sztajer claimed that he personally hit Ivan the Terrible in the lower back with a spade, slicing his back open and knocking him over. A few minutes later, he returned to the spot to see that Ivan was gone.

While most prisoners were killed during the uprising, Sztajer was one of approximately 300 prisoners who managed to escape into the surrounding forests.

Survival in hiding
After his escape from Treblinka, Sztajer hid in the forest in Poland for almost twelve months until being liberated by the Soviet Red Army 1st Belorussian Front during the Lublin-Brest Offensive in July 1944. Sztajer survived hiding together with two other Jewish refugees, a man named Uryn Glatt and a fifteen-year-old boy named Joel Pandrik. Sztajer encountered the group in the forest near Treblinka not long after he escaped. The group crossed the Bug River together and hid in a burrow that they dug out under a tree. They often stole food to survive, and sometimes farmers and peasants would share small amounts of food with them.

Post-war life
Sztajer married Chana Sztal in 1945, and together they had two children: Malka and Zev.

The family moved to Israel in April 1949, where Sztajer served in the Israel Defence Forces as a reserve soldier.

In 1955 the family moved to Melbourne, Australia, where they became naturalised citizens in December 1961. Chana died on 8 July 1971.

On 1 April 1973, Sztajer married Rosa Granek.

In 1982, he began constructing a miniature model of the Treblinka extermination camp. He constructed this model entirely from memory over the course of three and a half years, completing it in 1986. He donated the model to the Jewish Holocaust Centre, where it remains on display. Sztajer also volunteered at the museum as a survivor-guide.

In 1987, Sztajer travelled back to Israel to give evidence in the trial of John Demanjuk who was accused of being the notorious Treblinka Guard known as 'Ivan the Terrible'.

Sztajer died on 16 February 2008, at the age of 98.

Pre-loved baby grows from famous mums highlight Sierra Leone's shocking maternal death rate
One hundred and fifty baby grows donated by mums from all walks of life, including MPs, broadcasters, actresses, bloggers and faith leaders have been displayed outside a famous London landmark as a symbol of solidarity with mothers in Sierra Leone – the most dangerous place in the world to give birth.
The installation has been placed in and around St Martin-in-the-Fields on Trafalgar Square in London, as part of Christian Aid Week (12-18 May), to illustrate the stark reality that women in Sierra Leone are 150 times more likely to die in childbirth than those in the UK.
Mums in public life who donated to the project include MPs Luciana Berger, Jo Swinson, Seema Kennedy and Alison Thewliss, BBC broadcasters Emma Barnett and Kate Bottley, ITN newsreader Romilly Weeks and actress Jemma Powell.
The charity is hoping the installation will draw attention to the high maternal death rate in Sierra Leone, where women face a lack of access to healthcare facilities or health professionals. The West African country is the most dangerous place to give birth in the world, with an estimated 15,000 mothers having died during childbirth since the Ebola crisis in 2014. For every 100,000 live births, 1,360 women die in Sierra Leone, compared to nine women in the UK.
Christian Aid's media & PR lead Chine McDonald said: "Pregnancy and birth can be an anxious time no matter where in the world you live. But as the world celebrates the birth of a new royal baby, let's spare a thought for the women of Sierra Leone for whom pregnancy and childbirth can be a particularly terrifying time due to the country's extremely high maternal death rate.
"We are very thankful to the mums from all walks of life who answered our call to donate baby grows to this special project. We believe something beautiful happens when women stand together. We hope that this Christian Aid Week we will all stand up for mums in Sierra Leone and give generously to support our work alongside local partners to build more health clinics, so that pregnant women can deliver their babies safely."
Christian Aid is also inviting supporters to join its campaign to drop Sierra Leone's debt that was incurred during its fight against Ebola, in 2014-2016. It was the worst outbreak of the disease in history, killing 10% of the country's healthcare workers. Debt repayments are taking money away from improving healthcare services that is so desperately needed.
The baby grows will be at St Martin in the Fields in London until 18 May
Following the installation, the baby grows will be donated to a UK poverty charity, who can donate them to families in need.
Should anyone passing by the installation want to donate to the appeal, they can use their mobile phones, using near-field communication (NFC) technology and QR codes supplied by tech company Thyngs.

Nagaland CM urges bankers to open branches in remote areas
| Tuesday | 23rd August, 2022
Kohima, Aug 23 (PTI) With 26 out of the 74 rural development blocks in Nagaland remaining unbanked, Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio on Tuesday requested bankers of the country to expand their network in the North-eastern state.Banks should not open branches only in the state capital Kohima and commercial hub Dimapur, he said while addressing the Bankers' Conclave & Credit Outreach Program here."We urge them (bankers) to cover the remoter towns, and especially the unbanked 26 of the 74 blocks," the chief minister said in presence of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Governor Prof Jagdish Mukhi."We will be happy to support the private banks in their credit outreach activities, to facilitate the expansion of their credit portfolios so that they take on a greater share of priority sector lending," Rio said at the bankers' conclave.The meet is part of the Nagaland-government organised three-day Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Investment conclave inaugurated by Sitharaman on Monday.The state government has been encouraging and facilitating the people of Nagaland to take up private enterprises, but to meet their aspirations, access to credit and financial services from banks has been a concern, the chief minister said.Limited access to banks makes the entrepreneurs dependent to a large extent on informal lending, he said.A large portion of the credit by banks, other than that extended under various government schemes, has been only for consumer goods or housing loans, he said, adding that it is imperative to increase the credit flow to those who require it for running their enterprises."This is a critical area where banks have to put in more effort," he said asserting that the state government is ready to support them and address their concerns.With a view to increasing the volume of credit to priority sectors, Rio along with Sitharaman launched the Chief Minister's Microfinance Initiative on the occasion."The Initiative will make credit more affordable and available to individuals, Self Help Groups and Farmer Producer Organisations," he said while announcing that through this, the government hopes to disburse credit worth Rs 200 crore to Rs 250 crore during the year.This will further help increase farmers' incomes, promote credit discipline, encourage private enterprise and improve the agri marketing network and infrastructure in the state, he said.The chief minister expressed happiness that the North East Small Finance Bank has expressed the intent to extend loans of Rs 150 crore to small entrepreneurs and farmers, and open up to 10 branches in the state.

Dillard festival may be Rabun's best-kept secret
By Wayne Knuckles on Thursday, August 1, 2019
Bluegrass bands will be playing nearly non-stop this weekend at the 23rd annual Dillard Bluegrass and Barbecue Festival.
DILLARD—For 23 years, the Dillard Bluegrass and Barbecue Benefit Festival has been playing to packed houses.
Yet it may be one of the community's best-kept secrets.
"We've attracted as many as 5,000 people," said Hank Belew of Clayton, one of the organizers of the event. "That's a fairly typical number for us. We're the biggest event and the oldest continuously-running event in Rabun County. We're the largest draw in the county, with the least publicity."
This year's festival is being held at the Dillard City Hall Fairgrounds Friday and Saturday, and promises two days of family fun, live Bluegrass music, tasty food, kids' games, arts and crafts, free professional cooking classes and a historical exhibit.
The Dillard Bluegrass and Barbecue Festival is, after all, part of the year-long celebration of the 200th anniversary of the founding of Rabun County.
"Glenda Enloe (Dillard city clerk) has done a whale of a job," Belew said of this historical exhibit that will be offered free to the public at city hall.
Tickets to the festival itself are $15 per day or $25 for two days.

Q: ASP.NET WebForms Checking all Checkboxes in a GridView using jQuery v1.9.0 doesn't work I've a problem with my application regarding jQuery. I tried a code example ( https://web.archive.org/web/20210513220745/http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/120810-1.aspx ) to use a Header CheckBox to check/uncheck all rows inside a GridView. The sample code works with jQuery v1.4.4 but doesn't work with the latest jQuery release v1.9.0.
Here's the code.
<script type="text/javascript">
    var allCheckBoxSelector = '#<%=gvFileList.ClientID%> input[id*="chkAll"]:checkbox';
    var checkBoxSelector = '#<%=gvFileList.ClientID%> input[id*="chkSelected"]:checkbox';

    function ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded() {
        var totalCheckboxes = $(checkBoxSelector),
            checkedCheckboxes = totalCheckboxes.filter(":checked"),
            noCheckboxesAreChecked = (checkedCheckboxes.length === 0),
            allCheckboxesAreChecked = (totalCheckboxes.length === checkedCheckboxes.length);

        $(allCheckBoxSelector).attr('checked', allCheckboxesAreChecked);
    }

    $(document).ready(function () {
        $(allCheckBoxSelector).live('click', function () {
            $(checkBoxSelector).attr('checked', $(this).is(':checked'));

            ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
        });

        $(checkBoxSelector).live('click', ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded);

        ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
    });
</script>

With jQuery v1.4.4 everything works perfect. Using jQuery v1.9.0 every page load I get a "Object doesn't support this property or method: .live" error. If I use the syntax:
$(allCheckBoxSelector).click(function () {...

instead of the one above, I avoid the error but the Header Checkbox works only once. If I click it again nothing appens.
I also tried the .on syntax:
$(allCheckBoxSelector).on('click', function () {...

but it doesn't work too.
I'd like to know if that issue is due to a change or a bug in jQuery v1.9.0.

A: jQuery live should now be replaced by on. If the code worked before it should just work after you change live by on.
I got to the bottom of the problem: had to use .prop instead of .attr. I made some small modifications in the code too.
Here's a working demo on JS Bin: http://jsbin.com/egopar/4/edit
Here's the working code for jQuery 1.9:
 $(document).ready(function () {

    var allCheckBoxSelector = $('#chkAll');

    var checkBoxSelector = $('input:checkbox:not(#chkAll)');

    function ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded() {
        var totalCheckboxes = $(checkBoxSelector),
            checkedCheckboxes = totalCheckboxes.filter(":checked"),
            noCheckboxesAreChecked = (checkedCheckboxes.length === 0),
            allCheckboxesAreChecked = (totalCheckboxes.length === checkedCheckboxes.length);

        //console.log(allCheckboxesAreChecked);

        $(allCheckBoxSelector).prop('checked', allCheckboxesAreChecked);
    }

    $(allCheckBoxSelector).on('click', function () {
        $(checkBoxSelector).prop('checked', $(this).is(':checked'));

        ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
    });

    $(checkBoxSelector).on('click', function () {
        ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
    });
});

A: If you are not using jQuery anywhere else in your page, you can use a very simple javascript to do this.  There are many ways to do this, but this works for me and can be attached to buttons, links, etc.  checkid is the client id and select being true or false.
function checktoggle(checkid,select){
var check=document.getElementById(checkid);
var numinput=check.getElementsByTagName('input');
 for (i=0; i<numinput.length; i++){
  numinput[i].checked=select;
 }
}

A: Solved!
Thanks to Leniel Macaferi suggestions I used .on and .prop methods instead of .live and .attr but I make a different implementation of the script that finally works with jQuery v1.9.0 on my application.
<script type="text/javascript">
    var allCheckBoxSelector = '#<%=gvFileList.ClientID%> input[id*="chkAll"]:checkbox';
    var checkBoxSelector = '#<%=gvFileList.ClientID%> input[id*="chkSelected"]:checkbox';

    function ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded()
    {
        var totalCheckboxes = $(checkBoxSelector),
            checkedCheckboxes = totalCheckboxes.filter(":checked"),
            noCheckboxesAreChecked = (checkedCheckboxes.length === 0),
            allCheckboxesAreChecked = (totalCheckboxes.length === checkedCheckboxes.length);

        $(allCheckBoxSelector).prop('checked', allCheckboxesAreChecked);
    }

    $(document).ready(function()
    {
        $(allCheckBoxSelector).on('click', function()
        {
            $(checkBoxSelector).prop('checked', $(this).is(':checked'));

            ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
        });

        $(checkBoxSelector).on('click', ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded);

        ToggleCheckUncheckAllOptionAsNeeded();
    });

Northern Manitoba kidnapping, 'intense' highway chase leads to arrest of woman and 2 men
Three people were arrested in Flin Flon after RCMP say they kidnapped a man from a northern Manitoba fishing camp in his own vehicle on Monday, and later led officers on a highway chase.
Man, 20, forced into his own truck by 2 others at a fishing camp on Monday, RCMP say
Caitlyn Gowriluk · CBC News · Posted: Jun 19, 2020 2:12 PM CT | Last Updated: June 19, 2020
After a highway chase that involved two spike belts, RCMP caught up with a stolen vehicle, and the vehicle's owner, who had been kidnapped, in Flin Flon, Man., on Tuesday evening, Mounties said in a news release. (Submitted by Manitoba RCMP)
Three people were arrested in Flin Flon after RCMP say they kidnapped a man from a northern Manitoba fishing camp in his own vehicle on Monday, and then led officers from two provinces on a highway chase the next day.
A 20-year-old man was at a camp on Kisseynew Lake with a 36-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy when a vehicle rolled up with three people inside, RCMP said in a news release on Friday.
Two men got out of the vehicle and asked the people at the fishing camp if they had any guns. They then assaulted the 36-year-old, threatened him with a knife, stole one of the men's rifles and grabbed the 20-year-old, according to RCMP.
The kidnappers pushed the 20-year-old into his own pickup truck and told him he was going to drive them to Winnipeg, roughly 650 kilometres to the southeast.
They also stole the other two fishers' cell phones, leaving them stranded without a vehicle or a phone at the camp, about eight kilometres from the Pukatawagan winter road junction and about 50 kilometres from the Highway 10 junction, Mounties said.
The next evening, the 36-year-old man's father, who is from the nearby community of Sherridon, Man., arrived at the fishing camp and learned what happened. He immediately went to the RCMP's Flin Flon detachment and reported the kidnapping at 6:35 p.m., the release said.
Highway chase
Mounties issued a notice to surrounding areas Tuesday evening with a description of the stolen truck. Officers from three communities along the Manitoba-Saskatchewan border — Cranberry Portage and Flin Flon in Manitoba, and Creighton, Sask. — patrolled Highway 10 and eventually found the group.
Officers tried to pull the truck over, but the driver didn't stop. They chased the truck down the highway, twice using a spike belt to try to slow it down. Damaged by the spikes, the truck continued down the highway and eventually drove several blocks into a residential area in Flin Flon and stopped.

The people in the truck tried to run, but were quickly arrested, RCMP said. The kidnapped man was found in the truck "unharmed but quite shaken up."
Officers found a loaded gun and a large filleting knife inside the truck.
Two men and a woman were charged with a range of offences.
Group charged with 40 offences
Kevin Lewis, commander for Manitoba RCMP's north district, called the situation "intense and dynamic."
"The professionalism and teamwork of our detachment members resulted in the victim being brought to safety and the suspects being taken into custody without anyone being harmed," Lewis said in the release.
"I am proud of the actions of our members in bringing this event to a successful conclusion."
A 32-year-old man from Denare Beach, Sask., is charged with 19 criminal offences and a 23-year-old man from Flin Flon is charged with 17.
Those charges include kidnapping with a firearm, robbery with a weapon, robbery to steal a firearm, theft of a vehicle, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, flight from police, assault and uttering threats.

A 28-year-old woman from Denare Beach was charged with kidnapping with a firearm, theft of a vehicle, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and unsafe storage of a firearm. She was later released on court-imposed conditions and is scheduled to appear in Flin Flon court on July 14.
Cranberry Portage RCMP are still investigating.
